Silence for our Father figure is here haaha yes, Christian has certainly made the rounds and improved himself to extraordinary levels this year, all by adopting some young talent with no dads and being the ultimate villain. 

5: Samoa Joe

The most dominant ROH tv champ in history is here, I have loved Joe for years and this year he's had a great push and even if it was weird for him to drop his roh title just to fight max one more time, it's also cool because he's a shark in a small tank, and he wants to go eat bigger prey. 

4: John Moxley

No list would be complete without the Mox himself, Honestly every top 10 AEW talent list should always include Mox somewhere, he is an absolute unit!

3: Orange Cassidy

The careless fighting champion who is freshly squeezed, he has held the international title twice and defended it for 326 days and that equals over 30 opponents! He has worked effortlessly defending his title and being banged up and then coming back healed after losing his title only to win it back, and he's still defending it as of writing haha. 

2: Swerve Strickland

Top rope catch a vibe, because I swerve when I drive! WHO'S HOUSE?! SWERVE'S HOUSE! So his feud's have been incredible and Swerve continues to improve and build and get bigger and bigger with each time he sets foot in any arena. His recent Hangman feud was insane, and their death match was a mega contender for match of the year, there's no way to not have Swerve anywhere else on my list than right here. I can't wait for him to go beef it up with MJF.

10: Jade Cargill

The longest reigning TBS champ and also with a long reigning undefeated streak, Jade left AEW earlier this year for new pastures and no doubt she will be an even bigger success.

9: D.M.D. Britt Baker

Of course, I will put Britt on my list, she is an exceptional talent, and although we have seen less of her the past few months, she certainly is a staple in AEW.

8: Taya Valkyrie

Although Taya has been around for years and a fave of mine since appearing in TNA, she has gone to AEW this year and made a nice impact....no pun intended.

7: Skye Blue

A new talent that first emerged full of smiles and with lots of internet love for her *ahem* "asset" but since feuding with Julia Hart she has been getting darker and more violent and rocks a new look at the moment. A great athlete and even more mysterious gimmick.

6: Willow Nightingale

Another relatively new talent, Willow has exploded on the scene with her bold yet friendly nature and loveable smile and personality, I am happy enough to list her here as she has impressed me throughout her time.

5: Saraya

Saraya had an amazing moment this year in AEW ALL IN London unfortunately it was not capitalized up on. She still has it and is a draw.

Shida is always a phenomenal talent, and she always deserves to be on any AEW womens list.

3: Kris Statlander

Since returning from injury and beating the undefeated TBS champ, Kris has been on fire and keeps getting better with each defence.

A cheerleader turned into a dark and gothic, mysterious force of nature with The House Of Black. I am happy she won the TBS title recently, she has been built up so well and gets better and better every week. She is also AEW's youngest champion in history at just 22 years old.

1:Toni Storm

It's Toni's world, and we are clearly living in it. The descent into her madness and Hollywood stardom has been incredible, and in a short time she has run up 3 title reigns as AEW women's champ.

ROBOCOP

Peter Weller, who played the titular character, had to endure long hours in the RoboCop suit, which was extremely uncomfortable and caused him to lose three pounds a day from sweating.

PREDATOR

The original design for the Predator's face was quite different from the one in the final film. Jean-Claude Van Damme was initially cast as the Predator, but his design didn't work out, leading to the iconic creature we know today.

GREMLINS

"Gremlins" was originally conceived as a much darker and scarier film. However, it was later developed as a horror-comedy, striking a balance between humour and horror.

SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL

"See No Evil, Hear No Evil" is loosely based on the novel "Two for the Seesaw" by William Gibson, but it takes a comedic and farcical approach to the material. 

BILL & TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE

The roles of Bill and Ted were originally offered to other actors, including Pauly Shore and Sean Penn. However, Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter ultimately landed the roles and became synonymous with the characters. The phone booth was originally supposed to be a van, but they opted for a Dr Who nod. 

ROCKY IV

The training montage featuring Sylvester Stallone as Rocky and Dolph Lundgren as Ivan Drago is famous. The sequence was filmed in Wyoming, and Stallone had to be airlifted to a hospital after being punched in the chest by Lundgren to maintain authenticity in the fight scenes.

INDIANA JONES: RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK

In the famous boulder scene, Harrison Ford outran a real boulder, which was a fibreglass prop. The stunt was extremely dangerous, but it resulted in an iconic film moment.

BEETLEJUICE

The title character, Beetlejuice, was originally envisioned as a winged, reptilian demon. However, the final design for the character was more whimsical and unique.

STAR WARS: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK

The big reveal of Darth Vader being Luke Skywalker's father was kept a well-guarded secret. Mark Hamill, who played Luke, was only informed of this twist moments before filming the scene to preserve the surprise.

BACK TO THE FUTURE

The original choice to play Marty McFly was Eric Stoltz. He filmed several scenes but was later replaced by Michael J. Fox, leading to the iconic casting that we know today.

All of these films are iconic and classic, and I have seen so many times. Do you love or like any of these films? Comment and let me know and hit me up on letterboxd @Scotty2Jonesy.

Strap in for a ride back to the soulful 70s!

The Exorcist

"The Exorcist" is known for its shocking scenes, but did you know that the sound of Regan's neck cracking during her infamous head-spinning scene was created by twisting a leather wallet inside an old leather jacket?

Jaws

While the animatronic shark used in "Jaws" was named Bruce by the production crew, it often malfunctioned during filming, leading to Spielberg creatively using suspenseful music and camera angles to build tension without showing the shark.

Blazing Saddles

"Blazing Saddles" features an iconic scene where cowboys enjoy a hearty campfire meal. The sound of their breaking wind during this scene was created using the recordings of actual cowboys and cowgirls.

Alien

The chestburster scene in "Alien" was a surprise to most of the actors. The only one who knew what would happen was John Hurt, whose reaction was genuine, creating a more authentic shock on screen.

The Godfather

The famous cat in the opening scene of "The Godfather" was not originally in the script. It was a stray cat that Marlon Brando found on the set and decided to include in the scene.

Grease

In the final scene of "Grease" when the car takes off into the sky, the car was actually a full-scale mechanical replica with wheels that retracted, making it appear as though it was flying.

One Who Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest

"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was one of the few films to win all five major Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Adapted Screenplay.

Life Of Brian

Monty Python's "Life of Brian" was met with controversy upon its release but has since become a cult classic. The film was banned in several countries for its religious satire, but John Cleese's mother defended it publicly.

Star Wars

The iconic opening crawl of "Star Wars" was created using practical effects. The text was physically printed on a 6-foot-long camera bed and filmed against a starry background to achieve the famous scrolling effect.

HALLOWEEN

The original "Halloween" (1978) had a limited budget, so the famous Michael Myers mask was a William Shatner mask painted white and altered to create a more haunting appearance.

All of these films are iconic and classic, and I have seen so many times. Do you love or like any of these films? Comment and let me know and hit me up on letterboxd @Scotty2Jonesy.
